I held on tight,
scared of letting go,
of changes that were to follow,
but was it worth all the fight?
I couldn’t leave,
yet I hated my stay,
thought we were a team meeting halfway,
who knew then what was up your sleeves.
Afraid of losing you
I started losing my identity,
but who will save me from this toxicity,
unless I was willing to start anew?
I let go my fears,
gathered my courage to say goodbye,
now my life I must detoxify,
drying up these tears by you over the years.
I now am free as a bird,
I’ve faced the worst now it’s time to fly,
to shine as brightly as the sun in the sky,
taking an exit as magnificent westward.

Some sad lyrics again. It’s painful. It’s bleeding. But still, well written and beautiful in its own way. ❤️❤️ Daph, are you there. I’ve been away and realized you’ve been very much away too. Come back, and return joy to our hearts with your noble writing.
